This is an important and sadly neglected issue. Thank you for raising it – I have “bigged it up” (eeurghhh) on FB and Twitter.

I wouldn't hold too much hope though.  VAT on e books, e journals has been raised time and time again, and each time the UK Gov't has said "nothing to do with us, mate, it's EU rules".  But I guess the only way to get the UK gov't to pressurise the EU is through such a petition. Pity the petition only covers e books and not e journals though.....
